Since I made this video I figured out the problems that I was having with the Air Maze, vacuum line, the GAV, and the idle. I'll address these in future videos. Thanks for watching. Leave a comment if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
Yes, I also lubricated the throttle rod to make sure it wasn't sticking anymore. The weather was terrible the last couple of days so I haven't had a chance to try it out. Maybe today?
What a beautiful model A you have! What do they grow with those poles you were driving by?? Hops?? I dont know where you live and I dont need to know,never seen those before. Hope the "A" runs great we have a 1920 dodge bros, coupe.
Yes, they are hops. Some of the fields got taken out this year because the demand went down. There are hops in Washington state and here in Western Idaho. Other than that I wouldn't know. The climate has to be just right for hops.

Because a properly set up Zenith is better than a Tollotson. My car runs better now. It idles at a slower speed very nicely. It has not given me any trouble in the 500 miles since I put the Zenith on. My mileage is better. Of course, your experience or opinion may be different than mine. The Model A's came with a Zenith. It was designed especially for the car. We could go into technicalities perhaps in another video.
